DESCRIPTION:Presented by KPFA Radio 94.1FM and Project Censored\n\nHosted by Mickey 
 Huff\n\nWith the election over, it's the perfect time to get the reliably 
 candid response of one of our few great journalists.  \n\n"Chris Hedges has 
 been telling truth to (and against) power since his earliest days as a 
 radical journalist. He is an intellectual warrior who confronts American 
 empire in the most incisive, challenging ways. The insights he provides 
 into the deeply troubled state of our nation cannot be found anywhere else. 
 Like many of our most important thinkers, he has been relegated to the 
 margins because of ideas deemed too radical-or true-for public consumption. 
 Whether it is covering the dissolution of former Soviet states or embedding 
 in the Middle East to understand the post-9/11 world, he has been a 
 singular voice pushing against mainstream media disinformation and the 
 amnesia of establishment received wisdom. He is an intellectual heir to 
 American radical heroes such as Thomas Paine and Noam Chomsky, and is 
 dedicated to reigniting a shared commitment to radical equality and 
 honesty."\n\nPulitzer Prize-winning Chris Hedges spent nearly two decades 
 as a correspondent in Central America, the Middle East, Africa, and the 
 Balkans, with 15 years at the New York Times.  His books include Empire of 
 Illusion; Death of the Liberal Class; War Is a Force That Gives Us Meaning; 
 Days of Destruction, Days of Revolt; and Wages of Rebellion. He currently 
 writes a weekly column for Truthdig.\n\nMickey Huff is the Director of 
 Project Censored, President of the Media Freedom  Foundation, and executive 
 producer/co-host of the Project Censored Show on Pacifica  Radio. His 
 latest books include Censored 2020: Though the Looking Glass (co-edited 
 with  Andy Lee Roth) from Seven Stories Press and United States of 
 Distraction: Media  Manipulation in Post-Truth America (And What We Can Do 
 About It) co-authored with Nolan  Higdon from City Lights Publishing.
